Genes affected
WNK1 (HGNC:14540): (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1) This gene encodes a member of the WNK subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein may be a key regulator of blood pressure by controlling the transport of sodium and chloride ions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with pseudohypoaldosteronism type II and hereditary sensory neuropathy type II. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described but the full-length nature of all of them has yet to be determined.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 2C;C2752089:Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 2A Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 08, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 718 of the WNK1 protein (p.Arg718Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs786205473, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with limb-girdle weakness (PMID: 27671536). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191028). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt WNK1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 24, 2022The p.R718C variant (also known as c.2152C>T), located in coding exon 9 of the WNK1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2152. The arginine at codon 718 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been detected in an individual with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (Monies D et al. Hum Genomics, 2016 Sep;10:32). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species; however, cysteine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
